Accessible parking permit in Newfoundland and Labrador: how to apply
How to get an accessible (disability) parking permit in Newfoundland and Labrador: who certifies, where to apply and what it costs, from the official pages.
Accessible parking permit
Free. A doctor or nurse practitioner completes the medical part the first time. Send it by email (accessparkingpermits@gov.nl.ca), fax, mail or drop box at any Motor Registration Office; processing takes about 5 to 10 business days. Temporary permits last 6 months, permanent ones 5 years (renewable online through MyGovNL). No licence or vehicle is needed.
A health professional must certify the mobility limitation almost everywhere. Fees, validity and who may certify change: confirm on the official page before applying. Permits from other provinces are generally honoured when you visit. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source.
